  My point exactly.  You need to reconfigure dbconfig-common in addition
to nova/glance/*.

  The XXXX above, as in "you don't have it".

  No, it's a procedural point.  If you think what I did can be improved,
then by all means improve it.  But reverting someone's work on the
simple basis that you don't like it is very rude and totally
improductive.

  I don't have an extra server to donate.  I don't even use a server for
myself, actually: it all happens on my workstation, with three
VirtualBox VMs.

  I'm not calling you a liar.  "Liar" implies malicious intent, and I
don't think you're deliberately obstructive.  However, I do believe
you're honestly mistaken.

  Exactly.

  For those following the drama at home: I regret to say that you'll
have to find another source of entertainment, since I give up.  I just
don't care enough.
